You don't say that it's an experiment or just for learning how to write a project. You suggest it will be competitive in simplicity or speed. I find this hard to believe.

A project based on servo would be more credible. Sure, those developers are building JavaScript engines. However, their browsers are highly modular and you could do a build without JavaScript, a lot more easily than with the major browser engines.

In addition, it uses your own programming language, and there is no source repo.

Edit: I see the purpose of it better now. It would perform very well, but not compared to other browsers that had the same modifications. However, since other browsers don't have the same modifications, it would work comparatively well for the sites it would work with.

If you wanted to make it run fast with while supporting a lot of sites, and still be simple, I think using Servo would be a quicker path. They've already solved a lot of layout problems.

Good luck with it.

Again, I agree with you at all points, but the market disagrees with our point of view. So these models are deployed left and right everywhere.

We’re way past the point of return, as we have very semi-ok functioning open source models. Anyone who doesn’t play the game is being shunned out of the economical future, unfortunately. It sucks, but it is what it is.
> They milk the credit and move on, leaving the next engineer explain to management that what they have is not what they believe they have.

I worked with a Pete. He was brilliant. He wrote all proof of concepts that drove major flagship products. He showcased them. He proved the concept worked. He delivered with lightning fast time-to-market.

He also made it abundantly clear to management that his proof of concepts required major architectural overhauls to make them maintainable. That was the tradeoff. This was clear from the start.

Managers didn't listened. They could not or would not understand why you'd need to rearchitect a service that was working, in spite of the very creator of said service saying it. They believed, or wanted to believe, that the project was done and over.

The problem aren't the Petes. The concept of technical debt is either foreign or tabu for managers. They have to sell the higher-ups the need to spend more resources fixing something that works. It's bad for careers.
There were quite a few I'll never remember the name of, but there were a lot of different renditions of A Christmas Carol with unknown characters on Cartoon Network or some other kids channel.

If two mass separated, it will affect their velocity.

But does this hydrogen escapee like a rocket gas. Or it is just a restructure or a bit move of CoG.

One also note if it not too fast escape as earth rotate the overall effect depend upon the uniformity of the “escape” as the net effect can be zero or more depends upon its location on earth. Mostly as it is not align with the tangent of travel, it will affect.

How much as point out relates also the mass. But even the minor variations make the polar star changes. It will have affect.

That statment was qualified by:

> While I'm far from a cmake/cpp expert, this is a non-issue with most modern languages: you just pip install, cargo add, npm install, go get etc.

Which I also find fundamentally wrong because most real world projects have a C/C++ dependency which needs to be built and is built from one of those languages build systems by calling into cmake / autotools + make.

Just because you called apt-get or any other way to pull dependencies doesn't remove the fact that they need to be built and likely involve a C compiler.
I understand that this repo is a relatively thin wrapper, but it still should have some sort of explicit license. It would be much appreciated if you made it open source.

AFAIK the NAND they use on Mac products is not really particularly special, they seem to shift between a lot of different chips (often Kioxia/Toshiba) and many of them seem at best to be middle of the road. A lot of industrious folks were just buying the chips directly and performing SSD upgrades the very hard way, since it was simply worth the savings if you could.

However, they do provide a zip file containing source.

At least it’s open source although for some reason they are choosing to not use a version control system.

If you'll allow me to shill my company for a second, I'd be interested if you could take a look at DBOS[0] and tell me if it might simplify your problem. It's designed for making microservices a lot easier to reason about, and might help make your system a lot simpler.

I've bought used 3090 last year for ML and while it works fine, has correct DRAM and stuff, when I tried gaming on it I've noticed that it is significantly slower than my 3080. I'm not sure if the seller has pulled some shenanigans on me or the card actually degraded during whatever mining they did.

Just beware, the card might be "working fine" on a first glance, but actually be damaged.

PSA: STAY AWAY!

I had two expensive caldigit docks (TS3 i believe). One was warranty replacement for the first one. Each died after about a year.

After that I had an expensive alogic dock. Seemed great when it was working, but after just over a year it went dead (warranty is for two years).

The dock i had is out of stock. After weeks of “checking” I was offered an exchange for a cheaper version (whatever) that doesn’t include features i rely on (3 screens).

As “compensation” I was offered about 30% of the original price, since “the item was used”.

Thanks but no thanks. Standard amortization time for computer equipment is 5 years. And in either case, who has patience to go for weeks without their familiar computing environment? And my cost is replacement of the item, i did not rent it.

I got a Kensington dock sold by amazon at slightly less than the original price of that one, with better features and a brand name that is worth more than the piece of paper it is written on.

We’ll see how it lasts

To everyone else, I hope you have a nice festive break!

One of my fondest Christmas memories was when my brother and I got a PlayStation 1 for Christmas, the excitement and entertainment was amazing, we had graduated from Gameboys to 3D graphics. My brother is very competitive so it was the best to win against him in the car racing game (Tommi Mäkinen Rally). I can't remember what other game we got but I do remember he and I playing Command on Conquer years later and that background music is burned into my mind :D

Years later with my own kid I have a greater appreciation for the expense and planning our parents went through to find one for us.

My grandmother broke the Christmas gift rules with my parents and got my brother and I a NES, Tetris, duck hunt with the gun, and I believe the Olympics with the power mat. Christmas windfall I’ll never forget, seeing my parents faces drop as we opened all those games and just ignored every other present. Grandma had a nack for tweaking my mom any way she could, one of the meanest people I’ve ever met in my life but this year our interests aligned.

My mom was enthralled by Tetris, better at the game than anyone in the house by a good 10 levels, and basically impossible to depose from the controller. I think it softened the blow with Grandma.

I certainly consider it to be immutable.

But NixOS is immutable in a very different way to all the mention distos, which are focused on containers, isolation, and layers; Maybe the author doesn't consider it to be in the same category?

Personally, I've decided that NixOS is not for me. The concept is great, but the actual experience seems to be held back by Nix (the language and the tool) being hard to understand and debug.
I guess I never really thought about it, but yea a lot of bangers on that list
It's not. That's part of the research. From the article:

> "Indeed, Walmart’s many defenders argue that the company is a boon to poor and middle-class families, who save thousands of dollars every year shopping there. Two new research papers challenge that view. Using creative new methods, they find that the costs Walmart imposes in the form of not only lower earnings but also higher unemployment in the wider community outweigh the savings it provides for shoppers. On net, they conclude, Walmart makes the places it operates in poorer than they would be if it had never shown up at all. Sometimes consumer prices are an incomplete, even misleading, signal of economic well-being."

Note that as all docks it requires displaylink software on mac to use more than one screen, and the software is a bit buggy - needs to be restarted every couple of times i reconnect to the dock for the displays to work right. TBH this is the first dock i experience this with but then again os and software updates, and ive seen weird flaky behavior before, just not specifically this.

I'm still interested in a "selective MPRT" GPU or monitor setting, that only does black frame insertion on changed parts of an image and a "safety margin" around them. This should reduce flicker on non-moving portions of an image/still screen while keeping moving portions sharper. But this probably isn't useful for office tasks, perhaps video, and high-framerate gaming (but only games running at a lower FPS than the screen can (partially?) redraw).

Memetic Culture
The "social contract" would be the only contract in existence for which those subject to the terms of it were not granted the opportunity of consideration and the free choice to accept or reject that contract.

A contract you cannot choose to decline, and that you'll face imprisonment for violating isn't really a contract at all, it's really just a set of orders being dictated to you by a tyrant willing to initiate violence to get their way.
If I remember correctly, the book addressed this. 26 division of a circle was too much for reliable determination of which sign the camera was pointing at, so 16 (hex) made the angles more workable.

If we're talking efficiency, I wonder why he didn't consider Morse code. Well I guess that's easy, even though it's faster it takes a skilled operator to read it in realtime, and he had little time to write any individual bit of information down (cumbersomely writing in sand is slow)

Any Real-Time or mcu system that relies on repeatable code-motion behavior, and clock domain crossing mitigation (a named problem with finite solutions.) Many seem to wrongly conflate this with guaranteed-latency schedulers... However, the danger occurs when a compiler fails to account for concurrent event order dependent machine states that do not explicitly lock (i.e. less efficient un-optimized gcc will reproduce consistent register op ordered in time behavior for the same source-code.)

The llvm abstraction behavior is usually fine in multitasking application spaces, but can cause obscure intermittent failure modes if concurrent register states are externally dependent on the architecture explicitly avoiding contention. I would recommend having a look at zynq DMA kernel module memory mapped to hardware io examples.

It seems rather trivial, Best of luck =3
Training amortises over countless inferences.

And inference isn't all that expensive, because the cost of the graphics card also amortises over countless inferences.

Human labour is really expensive.

See https://help.openai.com/en/articles/7127956-how-much-does-gp... and compare with how much it would cost to pay a human. We can likely assume that the prices OpenAI gives will at least cover their marginal cost.

Then those people need to stop calling it a "contract". That's an act of manipulative deception purposefully designed to influence the listener towards accepting it, regardless of whether the speaker is aware of those origins.

It doesn't constitute a "contract" any more than a schoolyard bully demanding another child's lunch money "or else" (implicit threat of initiation of force / violence) constitutes a "contract".

The bully wouldn't become morally justified by calling his dictated orders (under threat of violence) a contract, nor would his act of extortion become any more legitimized, by deceptively referring to the act with an unambiguously incorrect term like "contract".
Is it clear? Apple doesn't publish endurance specs for their drives so there's actually no way to tell. 600x full drive writes (what the 2TB SN850X is specced for) is probably enough for the vast majority of users to never have to worry about it. You can even get enterprise SSDs, which are rated in whole drive writes per day for less than that.
